A/N: Okay we didn't that many reviews for the last chapter. And that made us really sad : ( but I had already written this. And cutting it in half would be pointless and dissappointing. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE review this chapter. This is my personal favorite chapter and I want to know what you think. Now on with the story... L :


I saw the look on each of their faces. It was if the food had burnt or went rotten. The only face with out this look was Jacobs. Sam went straight for Emily, and gave her a kiss and a hug.

"Thanks for coming guys." I said.

"Food smells great Bella!"

"Thanks Seth." Every one then tried to sit at the table. I saw we weren't going to have enough room but Sam said he would stand and so did Jacob, while Emily and I cleaned.

"So Bella, why did you stay out here and not with Charlie. Don't get me wrong or anything, this is a nice place but Charlie's place wasn't so…. Exclusive." Seth said as he was putting more spaghetti on his plate, I saw Jacob give him a look. I really didn't know how to answer him, without thinking about him so I came up with a quick lie.

"Well I'm 18 now, and I decided I needed to find myself." I said quietly and I tried not to cry, again.

"Cool!" Seth said enthusiastically. I couldn't help but slightly smile. I told Emily to go ahead and eat, while I washed the last of the dishes. Jacob then offered to help me, I said no but he didn't pay attention.

"You wash, I'll rinse." He said with my favorite smile. While we were washing Paul started talking and it was freaking me out.

"Bella-Bella-Bella…." I turned around to look at him, he was standing about 8 feet away from me. "Have you ever heard of 'Little Red Riding Hood'?"

"Yeah, why?" He took a step closer to me, making him only 6 feet away from me.

"And you know the story of 'Hansel & Gretal'?"

"Mmhhmmm" another step, 4 feet.

"The you should know it's not so safe for girls to be alone in the woods." He had a smirk on his face and it was scaring me. Why wasn't Jacob saying something to make Paul stop?! He took another step closer to me, 2 feet. I grabbed the nearest object to me and swung with all my strength.

"AAOOOUUCCHHH"

"Dang Bella!!" I heard Seth say laughing. I looked over at Jacob and he was laughing so hard he was holding his sides, Sam was even laughing. I looked at what I was holding in my hands, It was a pan. It was totally dented in, I looked up at Paul who was cradling his shoulder.

"Told you not to do it Paul, I warned you!" Jacob said as he was gasping for air.

"You knew?!"

"Well yeah, why do you think I didn't react to him being so close to you. I knew he wouldn't hurt you, I warned him in two ways. 1- Not to do it. 2- If he hurt you I'd rip his tale off while he was sleeping."

"Wow Bella, who knew you had such strength!" Seth said.

"I wouldn't doubt it, she runs with vampires remember?!" Jared said. I looked down and this time I did wrap my arms around my body, and so did some one else.

"Shut up Jared!" Jacob said as he held me tight.

"No it's fine." I wanted to do nothing but cry, but I knew I shouldn't because I didn't want to worry my guests.

"Awe Bella, it's okay" I heard Seth say as another pair of arms wrapped around me. This made me actually have a mood swing, I was giggling. Imagine 2 half naked, beautiful guys hugging me. "What's so funny?" Seth asked.

"Oh nothing, just a thought" Come to think of it, the thought reminded me of Emmett. Because he would be the one to think about this kind of stuff. I had an Emmett moment. This made me sad but laugh a little more, he would be so proud.****Once the pack left Jacob said he'd stay with me again, only If I wanted him to. And obviously I did. We sat in bed just talking, again.

"So how did Sam and Emily meet?" I wanted to know, because of the way he loved her so much, they must have known each other since they were kids.

"Well it's a really long story."

"Just tell me the basics" I really wanted to know, the love he has in his eyes for her reminded me of the love I used to see in E-Ed-ugh. I couldn't even bring my self to think his name.

"Okay. Well about 2 years ago Emily came to La Push to visit family. And we had a big bon fire, that's where Sam saw her for the first time. He says he felt like gravity was pulling him towards her. And he says that when he first shifted that the pull was much stronger, he asked the elders about it and they say he imprinted." He kind of looked sad as he was talking about this 'imprint' thing.

"So have you imprinted yet?" He was quiet "Jake?"

"No." He sounded so sad. So I leaned over and gave him a really strong hug.

"Thanks Bella. Hey aren't you hot?"

"No, why?"

"Well, ever since the first day I saw you outside. You've been wearing nothing but long sleeves, or zip up hoodies. And well I'm always hot because it runs through my blood, I can barely tell the temperature outside. Is it cold?" I could tell he was confused, I had to come up with a simple lie.

"No, I'm just really comfortable." he nodded.

"Okay."

"So you ready for bed? I'm tired." I said as I got up from the bed to go change into pajamas, I yawned and Stretched.

"What the?! BELLA!! What happened?!!?" Jacob yelled.

'Shi-' I forgot about that. I shouldn't have stretched in front of Jacob, that was a stupid mistake.

"BELLA!!" He growled this time.

"Yeah?" I said like I didn't know what he was talking about.

"What the HELL happened to you?!"

"Nothing." I walked quickly to the bathroom and tried to shut the door. But Jacob was stopping it with his foot.

"Isabella Marie Swan, what the hell happened? Where did you get so many bruises from?" I couldn't look him in the eyes, the pain was coming back to me. I wanted to hold my self together. "LOOK AT ME" He growled. I slowly looked up with tears in my eyes. "What happened to you?" I let go of the door and fell back and leaned against the wall. I slid down to the floor and started to shake and cry. Remembering that beautiful night I had spent with the love of my life. Jacob ran over to me and held me tight. "Bella, will you please tell me what happened?" I just shook my head no. "Will you tell me when you're ready?" I just nodded yes. I was crying to much I could barely catch my breath. Jacob just held me close to him, as we sat on the bathroom floor. I cried myself to sleep.

I woke up the next morning in bed, alone. But then Jacob came in the room holding breakfast for me.

"Morning Bella. I made you eggs with side of toast." He smiled a cute smile.

"Thanks Jake."

"So Seth called already, he wanted to know if he could come over. I told him I'll ask you and get back to him." I smiled

"Sure, sure. Seth's a cute kid. He's always welcome."

"Great, I'll call him right now." Then Jacob left the room to call Seth. He came over right away. So I prepared a lunch for him and Jacob, I was so full from breakfast.

"This is really good Bella, thanks." Seth said.

"You're welcome. So what would you like to do today?" Seth stroked his chin and made a thinking face.

"Is there any place around here where we can play baseball, or football?"

"Eh-I'm not sure." I said honestly.

"Well there is this once place. I came across a big clearing, when I was looking for you when you first disappeared. It's not that far from here."

"A clearing?" I only knew of one clearing in Forks. "Did the clearing have a big waterfall near it?"

"Yeah! Have you been there before?" I knew exactly what clearing he was talking about.

"yeah, once." I said softly, as I tried not to remember that day. That was the first reason why he said we shouldn't be together, why he wasn't good for me, or my health. I closed my eyes and shook my head and tried to forget about it. There was a quick silence until Seth jumped up and said,

"Well what are we waiting for? Lets go!" I couldn't help but laugh, he reminded me of Emmett when it came to sports.

"Sure, sure. But what are we going to play?"

"Football" I said quickly, I didn't know if I could handle playing baseball there.

"Sweet!" Seth yelled in excitement. Jacob and I just laughed. Both Seth and Jacob went to get a football at the store. I told them to invite the rest of the pack, and Emily so it could be a full game. And Seth was excited about that. While they were gone, I changed into some comfortable jeans and a long sleeved shirt. I sat on the couch waiting for them. I heard a loud roar and I ran to the window, it was Jacob on his motorcycle. I ran outside and he tapped the back of the seat, basically telling me that spot was for me.

"Where are the guys?"

"They're on their way to the clearing, on the way out I showed Seth where it was." I nodded and we headed off to the clearing. That's when I realized that's why the road looked so familiar, it was the same road we took to get to the clearing the first and last time I went. It was the same road that lead to my home. I shut my eyes and buried my head in Jacobs back. Because I was forbidden to remember, but terrified to forget.

When we arrived to the clearing, it looked exactly as it had the first time I was here. Paul, Jared, and Seth were tossing the ball back and forth at an amazing speed. Sam and Emily were laying in the grass holding each other.

"Alright guys, team up!" Seth said jogging over to Jacob and me. "You gunna play Bella?"

"Umm, I'll just sit out for now."

"And I'll keep you company, we can be referees." Emily said walking over to us.

"Sure, why not." I said, thinking about Esme and how we were the 'referees' when we played baseball.***I kept trying not to think about the past and tried to focus on now, this game. Paul tackling Jacob, it looked like it hurt. But it was almost as amazing as vampire baseball. Sure the speed wasn't the exact same but it was a lot faster then human football. Then I heard it, that's when I felt my chest caving in again. Thunder.
